Many factors influence the course of recovery from a concussion, including the severity of the concussion, previous history of concussion, physical injury/pain symptoms, and personal history, and so the length of recovery will differ among individuals.
Still, the trimesters of pregnancy can be a very useful âshorthandâ of sorts that we can use to talk about the symptoms and the progress of pregnancy. The first trimester starts with conception, and concludes roughly 13 or 14 weeks later. The second trimester begins when the first trimester of pregnancy ends. The second trimester of pregnancy begins at around 14 weeks of pregnancy. The second trimester will last for another 13 or 14 weeks, at which point the third trimester will begin. So, the second trimester encompasses the middle part of your pregnancy, and will lst from around the third month to around the sixth month of pregnancy.
Hereâs the most common breakdown, along with official weeks from the American Congress of Obstetricians and Gynecologists: First Trimester: 0 weeksâ13 and 6/7 weeks (Months 1â3) Starts with the first day of your last menstrual period (LMP) and ends with the last day of the 13th week thereafter. During your last period (which will be your last for a while), your uterus is preparing for ovulation and your body is gearing up for pregnancy, so technically, you can start counting from this point. Second Trimester: 14 and 0/7 weeksâ27 and 6/7 weeks (Months 4 â7) Starts at the beginning of the 14th week after your LMP and lasts through the 27th week of pregnancy. Third Trimester: 28 and 0/7 weeksâ 40 and 6/7 weeks (Months 7â9) Starts at the beginning of the 28th week after your LMP and ends with labor.
